Kavli Awards have been recognizing excellence in science journalism since 1945. Thanks to a doubling of an endowment by The Kavli Foundation in 2015, entries are now being accepted from journalists worldwide in all categories.
Entries must have appeared between July 16, 2020 to July 15, 2021. Some of the categories last year, so be sure to read the Categories, Submission Procedures, Contest Rules, and Frequently Asked Questions, before starting your entry.
The entry deadline is August 1, 2021.
Explore the Kavli website to learn about the prize-winning work of previous award recipients and the history of the awards program, which encourages better public understanding of science and its impact through rigorous, informed reporting and writing. The media landscape may change, but the commitment to outstanding science writing remains the same.
